The new feature is part of an upcoming update, but in the meantime, beta participants can give it a test run starting today. It will allow for externals up to 8TB in size. Along with the introduction of external storage management features, apps stored outside your machine will be accessible via the Content Launcher.

One (incredibly) lucky 9to5Toys reader will get a chance to own this NES Classic Zelda Edition Console Bundle for free!

nes-classic-edition-zelda

Nintendo had a great 2016 with the mini NES Classic and it is continuing to ride the wave into 2017 with Switch and Zelda Breath of the Wild. Despite it still being somewhere between very difficult and absolutely impossible to get your hands on a NES Classic or even a Switch pre-order at this point, excitement for Nintendo is at an all-time high. We have seen loads of accessories hit the market for Nintendo Switch, new games and even a batch of Breath of the Wild amiibo, but there is no sign of that illusive NES Classic Edition anywhere. At this point, it feels like we are more likely to see Nintendo unveil the SNES Classic. As exciting as that would be, there are still many gamers out there eagerly awaiting the opportunity to brandish the coveted NES re-issue.

nes-classic-edition-zelda-tech-triforce-backpackWell, you’re not going to believe this…but we got one and we are giving it to you!

Not only do we have the NES Classic mini, we have the NES Classic Zelda Edition Bundle. It includes the console, an NES Classic Wired Controller, two NES ExtendLink Extension Cables and a special edition Zelda Tech Triforce Backpack. As if that wasn’t enough, we have decided to add in both the Mario Modern Color and Mario Classic Color amiibo! I know, insane right?

One (incredibly) lucky winner will get a chance to own this one-of-a-kind 9to5Toys NES Classic Special Edition bundle ($150+ value). We will be revealing all of the details on how to do so this Saturday (February 4th). Be sure to follow 9to5Toys on Facebook and Twitter so you don’t miss your chance to win this amazing package.

This is great news for avid Walmart shoppers and it looks as though the new 2-day shipping is appearing across a number of different product categories. Even some third party sellers are getting in on the action. While it is expected to see this kind of offer hit the usual household items like “baby necessities, pet products, food, cleaning supplies and beauty favorites”, but we are also seeing it on larger ticket items like games, LEGO sets, other electronics and well, pretty much everything. more details below:

Oceanhorn 2 for iOS is being developed on Unreal Engine 4, check out these insanely gorgeous screens

oceanhorn-2-8

Oceanhorn is one of the best Zelda-style adventure RPGs on the App Store (also available on Mac) and its sequel looks to be taking it up a notch. Developer Cornfox & Bros. announced Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm back in the summer and we are just now getting our first good look at it with a new set of screenshots.

The original was already a very pretty top-down isometric style adventure game, but Oceanhorn 2 is taking the perspective into full 3D with absolutely gorgeous looking Unreal Engine 4 graphics. Unreal not only gives us a massive bump in fidelity but it will also allow the team to port the game to multiple platforms. We know it is coming for iOS and we can likely expect it to hit the Mac App Store, but there is no official word on any other platforms or a release date.

The sequel will take us through another colorful, Zelda-inspired world set in a new timeline. You can expect even more of what was great about the first game: “a deep backstory with secrets and twists, amazing music, and most importantly – classic Action RPG gameplay with items, puzzles, battles, and badass bosses!”

Hey, it might not be Zelda Breath of the Wild, but feast your eyes on these:
